panied by Mr. childs, visited Grant Hall to
inspect the oil portrait of General Grant, pre-
sented to the Academy by Mr. Childs. After

ton with the work Of the artist, Mr.. Childs
said. General. when you die We viii place
your portrait, as well as that of General sher-
man, beside that Of Grant. You were 50
closely allied in life that you should not be
separated in death. It would be very appro-
pirate for you three 10 hang side by side in
this hall
Mr. Childs, bluntly replied Gen. Sheri-
dan, If my portrait is 10 be 'Iung in this
hall beside that OF my beloved chief, would
like TO see it there, and if you intend to do
for me what you have 50 generously done for
Grant, il would be better to do it while | am
living
This was said in bantering manner with
no expectation that Mr. Childs would act
upon the suggestion. After the review,
